Moving from Taskwarrior

Importing data

Please see the dstask-import tw instructions to import taskwarrior tasks.

Using dstask

Commands and syntax are deliberately very similar to taskwarrior. Here are the exceptions:

  • The command is (nearly) always the first argument. Eg, task eat some add bananas won't work, but task add eat some bananas will. If there's an ID, it can proceed the command but doesn't have to.
  • Priorities are added by the keywords P0 P1 P2 P3. Lower number is more urgent. Default is P2. For example task add eat some bananas P1. The keyword can be anywhere after the command.
  • Action is always the first argument. Eg, task eat some add bananas won't work, but task add eat some bananas will.
  • Contexts are defined on-the-fly, and are added to all new tasks if set. Use -- to ignore current context in any command.
